Abstract:
Objective To study the influence of Ivor-Lewis surgery on lung function and quality of life of elderly patients with esophageal cancer .Methods 122 elderly patients with esophageal cancer were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group ,61 cases in each group .The control group was given Sweet surgery , observation group was given Ivor-Lewis surgery.The operative time,blood loss,number of lymph node dissection , drainage and hospitalization time were observed .Postoperative lung function 3 days after operation and life quality of patients 3 months after operation were compared between the two groups .Results The operative time,blood loss, drainage,and hospital stay in the observation group were (162.4 ±30.4) min,(260.1 ±33.7) mL,(1 254.1 ± 311.2)mL,(11.2 ±3.1)d,which were significantly lower than (201.6 ±33.6)min,(315.2 ±41.3)mL,(1 928.3 ± 346.1)mL,(17.6 ±3.6)d in the control group (t=3.627,4.662,2.716,3.772,all P<0.05).The number of lymph node dissection in the observation group was more than the control group (t=9.062,P<0.05).Before treat-ment,FEV1,FVC and PEF had no significant differences (t=0.612,0.301,0.772,all P>0.05).After treatment for 3 days,FEV1 of the control group and observation group were (1.89 ±0.47)L,(2.18 ±0.42)L;FVC were (2.44 ± 0.31)L,(2.87 ±0.25)L.PEF were (4.01 ±0.26)L/s,(4.52 ±0.29)L/s.After treatment for 3 days,FEV1,FVC and PEF in the control group were significantly decreased (t=4.162,3.997,5.012,all P<0.05).In the observation group,FEV1,FVC before and postoperative 3 days had no significant differences (t=1.032,0.924,all P>0.05), 3 days after treatment,PEF of the observation group was significantly decreased (t=3.128,P<0.05).After treat-ment for 3 days,FEV1 ,FVC and PEF of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (t=5.186,3.017,3.112,P<0.05).Before surgery,scores of life quality in the control group and observation group were (5.41 ±1.83)points and (5.31 ±1.77)points.After surgery were (7.01 ±2.16)points and (8.35 ±2.27) points.Quality of life in two groups were improved after operation .Life quality of the observation group was significantly higher than the control group (t=2.864 4,P<0.05).Conclusion Ivor-Lewis surgical procedures can significantly improve lung function and quality of life in elderly patients with esophageal cancer .
